Granddaddy always said
When he was seventeen
He met the girl
The one in all his dreams
And man, that was it
He never once looked back
He'd found somethin'
He just knew was gonna last
And if you ask him 'bout that day
He'll just tap his chest and say
That's how you know
When it grabs a hold of you and won't let go
And you feel like she's always been in your soul
And as time goes by, she's still surprisin' you
That's how you know it's true
When a new love feels old and an old love feels new
He said, I walked up to her door
And I was shakin' like a leaf
There on her porch
'Til she flashed that smile at me
And son, she took my breath away
And she still does to this day
That's how you know
When it grabs a hold of you and won't let go
When you feel like she's always been in your soul
And as time goes by, she's still surprisin' you
That's how you know it's true
When a new love feels old and an old love feels new
Now I finally see just what it means
'Cause that's how I feel now that you're with me
And that's how I know
'Cause you've grabbed a hold of me and won't let go
And it feels like you've always been in my soul
That's how you know
When it grabs a hold of you and won't let go
When you feel like she's always been in your soul
And as time goes by, she's still surprisin' you
That's how you know it's true
When a new love feels old and an old love feels new
